Lesson
The project’s main objective is to improve the quality, relevance, and equitable access to basic education in Uzbekistan by using ICT. However, the RRP and the PCR had limited discussions on this main objective, presumably because the project was being implemented alongside other projects in the education sector. Notwithstanding, achieving an enhanced access and higher quality of basic education was an essential accomplishment of the project that should have been highlighted.

A more accurate assessment of its capacity should have been conducted at project preparation stage.

The executing agency needs to monitor the project more closely. Without timely monitoring and evaluation, an opportunity to demonstrate improved sector performance was missed. Early mobilization of consultants is necessary for effective implementation of the project. Consideration could be given to a short, results-based consulancy to assist the executing agency and project implementation unit (PIU) agree on the baseline, commence procurement, and clarify any implementation issues, as well as short- to medium-term consultancies to implement specific project components.

E-learning is as important for teachers as it is for their students. Information and communications technology (ICT) is not a translation of textbook materials into electronic textbooks, but requires pedagogical skill in identifying how the technology strengthens student understanding of core concepts and encourages self-directed learning. It is a transition from teacher-centered to student-centered pedagogy. It also requires more creative e-learning materials.
